I definitely have on my M1 iMac. Not enough to want to upgrade, but it’s definitely happened.

Same. M1 Max w/ 64gb of ram.

Same for me but with an intel i5. I'd like a new MacBook but really don't need one.

Do you do any video encoding or audio work?

Because I think the M1 Pro has been solid, but no one would say no to a 20-35% performance increase

What do you do on it?

The Max chips are aimed at people doing super GPU and CPU intensive work so naturally that user is going to be thinking “I wish this chip was faster” quite often

I'm only upgrading for a better screen and thunderbolt 5, even then those are just nice to haves.

My main want with MacBooks is sane base RAM and storage specs.

I think that all the time with my M1 Ultra :(. Especially when I have a third display connected.

Your 2-3 year old computer? Is it expected such a new computer would feel slow?

You aren't in a need of a new laptop yet, congratulations. There are plenty of people who are, and they aren't going to stop progress on chip development just because the M1 was great...

I keep having to remind myself that this M1 Pro MBP is over 2 years old now. The only time I'm waiting on this laptop is when it's doing macOS updates.

Seeing these M3 deals and it makes me wanna upgrade, but then I remember "oh wait, the M1 Pro is still an upgrade, I've never needed more than my M1 MBA, I just need the bigger nicer screen and M1 Pros are cheaper than ever." They really just are good enough for almost anyone...if they drop OLED screens I can see upgrading again for that, but in terms of power M1 still feels like enough. I play WoW/LoL, I don't build classical symphonies in Logic, I don't edit Transformers 8 in FCPX...M1 still a beefy machine for the rest of us.

The m1 was so stupid powerful when it launched they overdid it, lol
